3rd to last Post about Carolina Game

There is nothing really more to say about the game so I will keep making posts till I feel better.

Ranking who to blame most:

1.  CMR- Right or wrong it starts at the top.  The program has no sense of urgency and it very well could be because the head man never has.  Unfortunately, I don't see that changing anytime soon.  For the most part we beat who we are suppose to and lose to everyone else.

2. Offensive Line- We thought it would be bad and then it wasn't.  Then it was catastrophic.  Gates didn't block Clowney one time.  The rest of the line wasn't as bad but they were all horrible.  Murray was bad.  He was all over the place with his feet and missed a handful of open receivers.  I wish he could've played better but I don't know if Peyton Manning would be capable of playing well facing what Murray did last night.  Same for Gurley and Marshall.  Not good but not much they could do.  Receivers dropped balls but it didn't matter.  It appeared as if BC was blocking the Falcons. Fail minus.

3. CTG- When the hire was made, most people said it would either enhance the CMR legacy or lead to its final demise.  As Stick reminded me earlier, he certainly wasn't Georgia's first choice.  The defense has regressed in year three and  looked more confused than ever last night. No pass rush, wide open receivers, and thankfully SOS eased up as the game went on. Its just hard for me to understand how we have all this supposed talent and give up 44 and 35 in back to back weeks.

4. Special teams- Punt coverage, Logan Gray.  For at least 5 years Georgia has been below average on special teams.  Yet, nothing is done in an effort to improve any aspect.  I don't understand.

5.  Larry Munson- Since the Mighty Munson retired for good in September of 2008, the Dawgs have arguably no signature win.  Maybe he used up all the great games and calls.  Or maybe he took lady luck with him.

I honestly don't have much blame to put on Bobo.  Sure, we looked unprepared, but we were everywhere. He ran the screens to death but it might've been because he knew we couldn't run or go through progressions.  At any level of football, if no one is blocking, there's very little play-callers can do.

As some have wrote about today, Spurrier has to be considered one of the best coaches of all time.  He built Florida into arguably the best program of the 90's, won an ACC title at Duke, and has taken Carolina to a place not even a Gamecock would've ever imagined.

  


On a brighter note, the CADETS are #9 in the state.  First time in more than a decade.

Targets:
1) Chip Kelly
2) Chris Peterson (can really develop talent
3) Bobby "Motorcycle" Petrino
4) Dana Holgorson

Kirby Smart. Rebuild. Take a chance. He won't be Saban but he knows better than anyone how Saban runs a program. He's a Georgia guy and knows the conference in and out. He's considered a top notch recruiter. He's a young and hungry, looking to prove himself. Sure there will be a learning curve but that's to be expected. Richt had plenty of coaching blunders in '01 (hell he's still making mistakes).

You won't get a top notch coach in here right now. No offense Plowe, none of those guys you named would come to Athens with the exception of Petrino because he doesn't have a job.

Kirby doesn't have head coaching experience- neither did Richt. People ripping Florida for taking Muschamp (another Saban guy) because he didn't have HC experience are starting to reverse course.

I'm not saying this is an automatic homerun by any means but that's who I'm endorsing should the job come open, which it won't so this is all a moot point.

No Offense taken...just wishful thinking haha

I think Holgorson would come. He seems like a guy that just wants to piss people off and there's no better place to do that than the SEC.

Holgorsen is crazy enough to come but I think he likes being in the Big XII too much because they don't play any defense (pot meet kettle after Georgia hasn't played defense in two weeks).

No team coached by Muschamp or Smart will ever play in a BCS bowl. #LAMS

CMR has two more years. Then he will retire and do mission trips/testimonies full time.

Leach will have some success by then at Wash St. so we will be able to bring him in with CDC, CBV, or CDP.

If Leach were to be hired at Georgia we'd be the greatest program ever.
